To me, lines are important. This car, like almost all Jaguars is gorgeous. Spec sheets are just paper, how it looks, feels, and drives are how I decide what to buy. I would prefer the LC500 for my personal consumption, but love them both. Great review.
Very interesting content. Thanks. I had a boxster and sold to get an FTYPE V6 for the sound. The Porsches are too expensive for me and these were an incredible value in the used market. Love it.
I've considered v6 only (v8 quite an overkill) and test drove one, but now I'm starting to lean more towards i4 having seen the packaging of v6 - that's a v8 block with 2 cylinders blanked. So you're carrying so much redundant weight. And the engine bay is very tight, no oil dipstick as well... Just makes it a lot more complicated to have as 2nd-3rd owner and that does his own maintenance. Yeah, 4 cyl isn't as sweet, that v6 is magical, but at least you're 300 pounds lighter.
I just bought the 2022 F-type R. Your video was excellent. I tested the AMG GTC, Porsche GTS and the C8 and chose the Jaguar. About $50,000 cheaper than the Germans and $30,000 than the C8 ( if you wait for a year!). The Lexus wasn’t even considered due to it’s design language. The AMG was my second choice. You are totally wrong about the interior! I have 20 year old X-type with even more plastic and it doesn’t flex or creak at all. The Meridian system is great but you cannot compare it to the Range Rover because the F-type doesn’t have the acoustic volume for bass or ceiling speakers or a trunk subwoofer etc…They focused on clarity when driving with the top down rather than the boom. The ergonomics are far superior with the F-type which is why they never changed it much. You can operate all the critical functions without taking your eyes off the road. No car goes from comfort to dynamic as easy and quickly as the F-type. Tip: Film yourself getting in and out of roadsters. People have no idea how low these cars. You gotta be in shape. Most RUclipsrs struggle to get in and out and can barely fit into roadsters (Smoking Tire, Demurro et.) I like that your video was more factual than tap dancing like those other guys.
@@MeynMotorGroup Thanks! One update though. The sound system DOES have a bass boom. It varies based on what decoder you use and the quality of your source. Today I played some Hip Hop via a thumb drive and used the DTS decoder and it DOES sound close to the Range Rover bass! Definitely worth the upgrade. I mainly play jazz and R and B but it’s good to know I can rock Dub Step from time to time!
Hello i own an f type s v6 380hp and let me tell you it does not feel like a v6 you guys won’t regret buying it and i also own a 250p f pace and i got your point when you said most v4 cars after 80 miles feel less fast and yes the car gives you it’s maximum performance when its accelerating and then becomes still after sorry if my english isn’t perfect it’s my 2nd language .
At last, an honest car review paying attention to what matters to an everyday driver, none of the nonsense, thank you for a great review.….I have subscribed and liked…….but, and I am sorry but there is always a but….I have to scream at the screen on yet another video from the US….. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH ITS JAG-YOU-ARE……..THERE IS NO CAR ON THE PLANET CALLED A “JAGWAAR”
i like the previous front end better .4cyl its a flex only spec on this car when you can have a manual V6 or a an amazing V8. Btw pretty sure the stock footage you put in the video were on portuguese roads
Thanks for buying this we work very hard to make our cars the best of the best I left the auto industry for about 14 years and now iam back if you have any issues with your car just call my dealership they can assist you with the best customer service we can offer i didn't make this jauar F Type but like i said i have been out for 14 years my mother's parents there deaths affects my business but we just have live in the present and just forget about the past even though my mother's parents they come back to life i always thought they were dead
I heard Jaguar is dropping the other engines for the F-type. Only the V8 will be offered for 2022. I'm not sure if it's the 5.0 V8 or BMW's 4.4 V8 from the Range Rover.
Had an odd epiphany watching this video. There are now multiple Jaguars I’d like to own: Ipace, fpace SVR and a v8 Ftype. Weird cause none of these cars are new. I haven’t really thought about Jaguars since I was a kid in the 80s when I thought the xj6 looked cool. I know porsche or Lexus are the smarter choices but I just kinda want a Jaaaaag now
Haha yea Jaguar is car that we usually even forget exists but I really like the F Type 2022 P450 seems like a great buy or if there is a dealer offering a decent F TYpe CPO not charging through the roof
Yea my friend word wouldn’t come to mind at the right time but that’s alright lol but yea all the quilting in the world can’t hide the cheap plastics they are using
Well thanks for you review of the worst F-Type money can buy. Everyone else please don't buy this car! Everything he has told you is true but none of it matter if you drive a 2015 F-Type R coupe as this is the last year it is also a true GT car. After 2015 the F-TYPE R is coupe all wheel drive making it a sports car. I'll also be upfront and tell you there is a cooling pipe that has to be replaced if it has not been done already and the supercharger has to come off to do it. So while this is being done change all the belts and the water pump. I spend 50K then about 5K more to get things strait. With all that said you can't buy a more crazy car! Just take any Dodge commercial where they are smoking tires and getting sideways with crazy sounds and insert the 2015 F-Type R Coupe. The difference will be you will look good doing it. Also it should be noted you will leave all but a Tesla S Plaid in the dust. The reason you need the coupe is because it is almost 80% stiffer than the convertible and I thing it just looks better. Also you will not see another one on the road every time you go for a weekend drive. One more thing you should thing about. This should be your second car a car for fun only! In 2015 they only produced about 650 of these cars and of that only about 20% were "R" and most of them are wrecked making this a very rare true GT car to have. Remember only 2015 F-Type R is a GT car after that it's a sports car. Also projector headlights is a classic styling queue taken from the E-Type it was designed to succeed. I've had mine for a year now and I will never sell this car! ruclips.net/video/QXPfEJYjJKk/видео.html ruclips.net/video/2m6yl6EOums/видео.html

always dig your no-nonsense, analytical approach to reviews.
Thank you my friend I appreciate that!

Agreed my friend
Lol, love the honesty and passion. I like the saltiness. Don't worry about the haters. You do an outstanding job! Keep up the great work.
Lol thank you my friend
Thank you Kevin for a great job reviewing the car.
Excellent video, sir. Agree on the important points, and I have one. The most beautiful [affordable-ish] car ever, imo.

Massive congrats my friend you made an excellent choice, one of the most exciting and engaging driving experiences that you can get today. 👍

Would be interesting to compare this with the old XK (2007-2013). A super value in the used market.
Yea always wanted to try the old XK loved the looks of it unfortunately the interior suffers from the same issues as this F Type

Massive congrats on your V6 F Type, yes the 6 cylinder is truly impressive
You’re actually a whole ass comedian. People don’t appreciate it enough, I do. Foreign whip for Instagram hahaha 😝
Lol thank you

Yea they didn’t change it too much guess they didn’t want to ruin what they have going on 4 cylinder is def a waste

A used F Type SVR would be amazing but then I realize the headaches would ensue with owning one
Yea that would be a great CPO purchase for sure
All hail algorhythm 🙌🏻 🌚
To be honest. I don't like the sound of the engine when you rev it.
Yup wrong engine for sure for this amazing sports car
@@MeynMotorGroup sad to know really!...
Fortunately for 2022 it is V8 only
@@MeynMotorGroup Good to hear!
Ser
We also buy cars from customers like for instince you have this car and then next year you sell this car to buy the 2022 jaguar F Type 2
A ftype with a 4 cylinder? Oh my god😂😂
Not sure why they would even bother just make the V6 the base engine at least

Wrong engine? Just by that caption I would hope that meant that it had an older generation 1.9 Volkswagen tdi engine
It’s pretty much just as bad
dang thats rough for that Jaguar
You don't care about the MT Nutsack Track?
Might be fun to run over the cones but that’s about it
The F-Type transmission is a ZF 8 speed...
But it sucks in this car just like how it sucked in the Acura TLX
Have a F-Type S AWD....v6 ....I would not get the 4 but that is just because the V6 and V8 exist.....
V6 is great
Front end is weak
4cylinder in a Jag is so nonbinary
Could you possibly do e89 z4?
Yea that’s a car I really want to cover on the channel. I did a video on the Z3 M model but the Z4 you mentioned is the one I really want to drive
The texture near the metal is called quilting, and on a car of that price to have such cheap arse materials is totally unacceptable.
Yea my friend word wouldn’t come to mind at the right time but that’s alright lol but yea all the quilting in the world can’t hide the cheap plastics they are using
@@MeynMotorGroup Yeah cheap plastics in a car of that price, they can fuck off! 😁

These are cute and I like these - but not new. Way overpriced and I’m choosing like 5 things before I buy this for this money lol.
For it’s class it’s not terrible AMGs can be far more expensive
Ewww that engine sounds fucking awful !
Yo bro
Hey bro just now catching up on the comments for this video
